The book tells the parallel stories of a young mans halting coming of age and a nation stalled in an unwinnable war, revealing the fallout that ensued when the two collided: a fumbling recovery effort that suppressed intelligence on Bergdahls true location and bungled multiple opportunities to bring him back sooner; a homecoming that served to deepen the nations already-vast political fissure; a trial that cast judgment on not only the defendant, but most everyone involved.
